Updates to user and group assignment views on the Microsoft Admin Center
Updates to the Microsoft Admin Center will improve the product licensing experience by distinguishing between direct and group-based license assignments. Rollout starts late June 2025 and completes by mid-July 2025. Admins will see a new layout, with direct licenses in the User tab and group-based licenses in the Groups tab. We’re updating the product licensing experience in the Microsoft Admin Center to make it easier for admins to distinguish between direct and group-based license assignments. This update improves clarity and performance on the product licensing pages (Billing > Licenses), helping you quickly understand how licenses are assigned and to whom. When this will happen: Rollout will begin in late June 2025 and is expected to complete by mid-July 2025. How this will affect your organization: Admins will see a new layout on the product licensing pages: Users with directly assigned licenses will appear in the User tab. Users assigned via Group-Based Licensing (GBL) will appear in the Groups tab. To view users assigned via GBL, select the group name from the list of group assignments for that product, then navigate to the Successfully assigned tab. View image in new tab This change is designed to improve page load performance and make license assignment paths more intuitive. What you can do to prepare: Review and update any internal documentation, training materials, or processes that assume all license assignments appear in the User tab. After this update, license assignments will be split between the User and Groups tabs based on how the license was assigned. Message ID: MC1102762
